I read that in some books they use linq to sql and entity framework..
Whats so good about them?!!?
They are slow.. especially linq to sql. Does entity framework have any benefit that make it worth learning?!?
I strive to make the site as fast as I can, and I dont use disconnected data access much
consider that my goal is to make the site run as fast as it can
ORM frameworks like Linq-to-Sql and Entity Framework will almost always implement an abstraction layer between the program code and database SQL statement. This layer’s job is to parse the code’s syntax into a SQL statement.
So, if your ultimate goal is increased speed, it would be smart to avoid that layer.
